with Professor Floren
Take this class with this teacher; she expects a lot, but she's fair and fun.
She is willing to go the extra mile for each and every student. She has no favorites.
She is extremely open to the needs and wants of her students and is willing to make a change if needed.
Take the class; it is challenging. Professor Floren is passionate about her subject, and creative.
The class is very well organized.
Be prepared to work harder than you ever have. You need to be a team player in this class.
This class is not for wimps, whiners, procrastinators, or slackers.
If you're a skater, don't take this class. If you want to learn, take it.
There's a lot of work, but it's worth it. You'll know your stuff when you're done.

This is a very hard class that will prepare you for a 4-year university.
The expectations are high, but so is the level of learning.
I learned to be a college student this semester.
This course pushed me and I loved it. I learned a lot about myself and I don't believe any other course could have done this. Professor Floren helped me grow as a person. She challenged me and made me really think.
Professor Floren is fair, honest, respectful, understanding, and loving; it's like having a hard parent—you might not like everything she says right away, but you know it is for your own good.
Boy were the papers tough! But I am glad they weren't easy now that I'm done. Thanks!
After the first day, I thought the class was too hard and wanted to drop, especially after the Hamlet paper. I am proud of how I stuck with it. I learned that something difficult is usually the most rewarding in the end. I am so excited I stuck with the work. This is a great class and can show what people are really made of.
You'll learn how to think critically, have an open mind, incorporate literature into your writing, and write with clarity.
You'll learn about literature and about yourself.
The teacher is very generous with her time to help all her students. You get a lot of personal attention.
The teacher is creative, energetic, caring, informative, challenging, imaginative, knowledgeable, and thorough. You do lots of work, but you learn a whole lot.
The classroom is relaxed; the teacher is dedicated, effective, and open to ideas.
Professor Floren is open-minded, friendly, kind, and helpful. She has an inspiring sense of passion and appreciation for creativity.
I liked the fact that we did various types of writing such as major papers, freewrites, team talk reports, and process letters, and I liked the fact that Professor Floren cared about how students were doing on an individual level.
I learned how to become more successful with my research techniques. I learned learned the value of organization, hard work, but more importantly, a positive, loving outlook on life.
I learned so much in this class; it was my fav for this semester. Professor Floren is super nice and understanding.
I feel as though I am leaving this class with a sense of accomplishment and confidence that the writing, critical thinking, and research skills I have learned here will help me through the rest of my college experience.
Team talks rock!
I loved the theme of peace.
Loved the opportunity to speak my mind openly and without fear of discouragement. Also I loved Professor Floren's willingness to listen and her camaraderie with her students; she is passionate about the subject and she inspired me as well.
Excellent teacher! She makes it fun for everyone by interacting with us and letting us interact with each other. It is obvious that she is interested in students as people and not just as students.
Everyone helps everyone else in this class. You'll make friends here.
I enjoyed every minute of my English 201 class and the learning I did under Professor Floren.
I really enjoyed this class. I've learned so much about English, and also about life.
She is a very wonderful person. I am glad to have met her.
She's a wonderful teacher, and I feel so lucky to have been in her class!
She gives us her all. It has been a privilege being in her class.
She has the heart for teaching.

I would definitely recommend this class and this teacher.
